I just ordered these after someone posted them earlier. I think Clarks just started making them and they're pretty affordable, but I get the feeling that the silhouette isn't gonna be too good. I'll find out next week..

How much should one spend on buying their first pair of boots?

>>12904775
Shell out a good amount. A good boot can last you five years minimum. I would recommend you spend AT LEAST 200, optimally 300 to get the most bang for your buck.

>>12904782
>optimally 300
>solovair do not exist

>>12904775
get surplus combat boots. you can pay around 100 for a pair in good state, or much less if you know where to look

Best place to buy eu-made boots as a eurofag?
American made is cool too but they are too expensive here most of the time

are there any goretex or similar waterproof technical boots that aren't ugly? having a hard time finding some

>>12904761
I saw these in person at KITH and they were super nice.

>>12904772

First time boots buyer, decent pair to go with entry level jeans?

Budget is around $250.

>>12905871
What styles do you like? Literally everything goes with jeans.

At that price range, if you don't know what you want, you should probably look at Chippewa's heritage/whatever the fuck line. Pretty basic/classic looking stuff, good quality for the price (or so I've heard). Their service boot (pic related) is my favorite model that they make and can be found for ~250 pretty easily. They have a few other solid options in the same price range.

I'm new to boots in general. Can you give me a general size guide?

I'm mostly familiar with athletic shoes like Ultraboost and Nike Free. I'm 10.5 in Ultraboost.

Thanks a lot for the help by the way!!!

Corcorans with frequent oiling.

recent boot cop for fall. Boots themselves are crazy comfy, but the smooth leather sole ain't that great for weatherproofness.

should i buy these? need some boots for the winter

hows the quality on these?

and do you know where these are made? I might cop one of the brown ones for myself

Should I cop? I know the quality is okay at best, but they are cheap as fuck right now and I don't own any suede boots.

>>12906486

I have these in brown and Meermin Cap Toe Oxfords, both superb quality for the price. Would recommend

Should I cop these?
I've seen mixed opinions

>>12906014
Probably 9.5 or 10. I haven't tried on Chippewas myself boots like that are usually .5-1 size below your sneaker size. If you're ordering online just look for a good return policy. Zappos does free shipping for returns and I know they carry at least some Chippewas.

>>12907059
Military surplus

Look for austrian, czech, Norwegian if you don't mind the ski clips

Bonus faggot points for wearing them with shorts

Should I get these in this colorway or in green?

>>12907497
If you are talking about the trim go for it, if you need to ask about green leather then no

work boot best boot

i am looking for a pair of leather boots that basically look like the classic 3-eye doc martens 1461 but as an ankle-high hiking boot.
other doc martens are either too high (for example the 1460) or have the right height but then look more like desert boots (for example the doc martens ember grizzly).
is there such a pair of boots?
they don't have to be doc martens at all
thank you so much!

>>12908441
That's what I was leaning towards as well, cheaper too

Sale on at LL Bean boiz. 25% off everything

>>12907777
EE is about a full CM wider than D. Shoe width goes by alphabetical order starting at A, the higher the letter the wider the shoe.

Thoughts?

I'm worried about their integrity. Did somebody purchased them by an ebay user named "no-step"?

>>12909384
these abominations should be banned from boot threads

>>12909627
yep, i got the 'supergrade' resoled ones. Had to return them twice and the ones I accepted were still not in the condition id hoped for...theyre definitely overstating the condition theyre in but the vibram soles are really good and well done

>>12909646
can i ask you a pic of your boots if it's not a problem, please? i asked for a pic to that faggot on Friday and i'm still waiting.

>>12909608
do they make these in sand suede like the meme boots?

>>12909823
>being this autistic
What the fuck do you mean "real alternative"? No one is forcing you to buy this boot you dipshit. It's fucking great bang for your buck at $50, even if some Kraut marched around in them for six months. If you don't like it, go buy new boots for $250.

>>12909886
It's not because of the brand and i don't give a shit if somebody use it, it's just that i don't want to resole them after one month.

>>12909608
They're pretty solid; they break in extremely quickly, the leather is more matte and less greasy, and feels reasonably soft. They squeak a bit at first, but after a couple days' wear that will go away. Even at the beginning that squeak probably won't be loud enough to hear unless you're in a library or something. The soles aren't terrific on wet/slippery surfaces, but they're passable.

>>12909907
>resole
Do you think they’re made out of butter or something

What do you folks think about these boots?

>>12910353
Leather looks nice but it's silly to spend that much on something with a glued sole imo, even if the sole is rubber, when you could be spending like $50 more and getting some Chippewas that you can resole

>>12906014
>I'm 10.5
As am I, but my foot is rather wide. I'd recommend you going to a store and trying them on, bring thick socks, but in general, a boot should be half a size down, so that way the leather forms around your leg. Don't forget, first couple of days of wearing the boot, it will be hell, but after, it's heaven on earth in terms of comfort.

any boot afficianato have an opinion on these Trask 'Lowell' Cap Toe Boot?

>>12910433
>Leather looks nice
Actually it looks like shit, they look even worse irl

>>12907768
Get too a boot maker

Copped these recently. Good quality and I believe they don't look cheap. Bonus that they have no outer markings of label.

Thoughts on either of these?
L / R €70 / €55
Poorfag so that's about my budget
Will be wearing these to college, don't want anything to hardcore looking

These fake martens are absolutely worth the 20 bucks, best boots I've had. Get the ones with the fur, really cozy fur.

Don't get them in anything but black. It is synthetic leather so brown is out of the question.

>>12911533
More hardcore than this would be goth tier.
But they are still fine, still. I would not pay so much for obvious shit boots. Get some actual military ones for even cheaper or go for

> i tried anon but these are hella gay

Apparently the leather is durable but yeah, the shitty sole is what is keeping me from buying them.

>>12904596
Do I cop?

Thoughts? Clarks something or another. Loving them so far, but also my first real pair of nice boots

>>12909608
clark's mali? I really like the shape/silhouette, but I wish it had a stronger sole for winter. I might pick some up for next spring. It's basically just a superior CDB.

Are there any boots of a similar style to these but for cheaper? Been considering getting Soviet military boots and modifying them.

>>12912905
Buy them

>>12913357
Soviet boots stink like fuck and look shit.

I need good winter boots preferably for around $100~ Any recommendations?

I'm not really a /fa/ kind of person. I bought these boots a while back, they were really cheap surplus boots (cost about $60) but are really good quality and manufactured in Sweden. My sister who is more into fashion and clothes says they are horrific. Are they really that bad and if so why?

>>12913357
Guidis are so nice, but blue jeans just do not work with them.

Question on boot fit.

How much space is too much in front of my toes?
There's no heel slip, and they're very comfortable, but I have about 1.5in beyond my toes. Too much?

>>12913504
Here they are from the side.

whats the best possible pair of combat boots i could get if money is no issue?

>>12913405
Awful. They have that ugly square shape so they could be used with skis.
>>12913585

>>12913568

If they are round toe that's way too much, but what you should look in fit is where your ball of the foot sits.

>>12913930
If you're counting pre-1950 style boots as combat boots the easy answer for me is the Viberg service boot. For a more modern but technically still old boot, the m1943 US ranger boot is beautiful and there are some nice looking reproductions available. Probably difficult to work into a modern fit though.

As far as classic doc marten-esque boots go I'd say the solovair 8 inch black greasy derbies (pic related) are the best looking. Corcorans look nice too if you can work around the huge toe boxes.

If you want something a little avant-garde/more designer-y, that's not really my style so I wouldn't know what to recommend.

>>12913971

On the fence with these,

415 bucks

>>12913988
You can probably find them for like $250-$300 pretty easily. I got mine for $200. Might not have the cap toe or the vibram half sole but you can put your own half sole on for like $20 or get it done at a cobbler for like $60.

Also I strongly recommend buying a pair that you have handled in person, the qc can be sketchy. My pair is pretty good other than one hook that's a little misplaced but I've seen much worse on the internet

>>12914040
ive looked everywhere, cant find the "adrian" cap toe wolverines elsewhere, def not for 250-300.

The regular 1k's yes, but I really want these cause of the cap toe and the extra rubber in the role.

Pic related is how they look like without the cap toe, for 400 instead of 415.
Considering these as well

> I strongly recommend buying a pair that you have handled in person

I am going to get them from nordstrom, they have a good return policy

Can someone give a personal review of the austrian meme boots? How heavy are they? Should I go true to size?

>>12915510
Good and cheap and comfy and warm.
They're kinda heavy but I don't notice when I'm walking.
Size down unless you're planning on getting huge insoles and wearing tons of socks. I wear a size 10 us sneaker and the size 9-9.5 (eu 43 I believe) are most comfortable for me with some old running shoe insoles (medium thickness) and two pairs of socks. They fit a little short and wide so if you have long feet you should probably stay TTS and just get big insoles.

>>12915539

Thanks senpai. I wear some orthopedic insoles and I have thick and medium ones so I guess I'll go tts

>>12915558
If you have orthopedic insoles TTS should be safe. Worst case you wear an extra pair of thick socks

Should I cop? Thinking of these either in black or a lighter brown.

Any recommendations for a middle ground?

Here's the only pair I am considering at the minute but as you can see pretty casual

Any recommendations for comfy styles brands would be helpful!

>>12921575
Those are nice, makes me want to try flat laces with my standard austrian memes. I think flat laces will have a slimming effect on the boot as a whole

>>12921601
Those are cool but I'd probably consider black like >>12921692 said. Black shoes are underutilized for smart casual though I guess that's largely because brown shoes are overutilized for smart casual.

>>12921601
one of the few good boots in this total shitfest of a thread. and I'm not even a fan of brogues or dressy boots myself.

Stuff the boot with an insole, should make it less roomy, also double-socks.

>>12920457
not

>>12922288
i like them. as long as you let them dry every other day and use hydrophobic coating, you should be fine

Which one is better?

>>12922625
all look shit tier. 1 looks the best but leather looks like nasty plastic

>>12922625

I like 2. the best

>>12922625
I'd definitely say 2 nice and subtle but a nice design as well. Actually wearable day to day. Who makes them ?

This colour or

>>12923146
this one?

>>12923146
>>12923150
depends what the rest of your wardrobe is like. both are pretty versatile though.

>>12922625
1 or 2
>>12923146
this unless you are black or arab.

you guys have any idea what these are?

>>12904596
Can I use saddle soap + DMs Wonder Balsam to clean and condition my MiE-Docs? I've come to understand that while only using saddle soap kills the boots, conditioning afterwards takes away the negative effects?

What boots should I get with dis?

>>12923906

some shade of brown obviously.

but it's hard to tell, since you took the picture indoor in front of the mirror like an instagram queen

Need some more boots shops from EU. The ones in the sticky are too expensive or meh or non-EU
Don't want to pay more than 200 euros

>>12923091
Pull and Bear

>>12919115
Thanks, good call, my man.

>>12921601
They look good, I've got a pair of *pic related* and I bloody love them, cost me a fair bit mind you.

I wear these timberlands proudly.

they have a steel toe.

now I can tap dance on a niggers face and kill him at the same time.

>>12923732
Yes. Saddle soap strips some of oils out of the leather, conditioner adds oils.

>>12921570
search austrian para boots, lots of results around 30-40 £

>>12924313
ugly af
>>12924326
how does the steel toe help with that, or are you a ballerina?

>>12924520
dont know anything except that they're julius

>>12924942
Austrian Bundesheer really needs to do a new production run of these. They're aesthetic af and functional to boot too.

should i??

were these a good idea?

>>12925826
>tfw thread died right as I walked in

>>12918820
They are every comfortable but not very good quality, at least in my experience.

>>12925826
are those beckmans?
I have them in black, love them.

They were what got me into boots.

>>12926101
I like them, I just don't know what to wear with them(that's the cigar color I have)

>>12926176
Yah I'm in the same boat as you. Similar boot but not sure what to wear them with

>>12917973
what are?

>>12926176
>>12926206
Beckmans are super basic, simple boots. Wear them with jeans and anything that goes with jeans. If you're feeling adventurous, try some wool flannel or twill pants.

>>12904596
Horrible taste.

YOU ARE TEEN ANGST

>>12926268
>tfw can't come up with outfit ideas

>>12926395
dude, they're boots, they go with pretty much anything but formal wear

are there any nonbug-eyed steel toed work boots? preferable without laces

Reverse image search cant find anything

>>12922120
Why not?
Seems like a respectable brand i got almost no experience with em tho

Nice

>>12925311

imo they don't look good

Which color variant of this boot should I get for $20 to wear with blue jeans? The intent is just to have boots for slushy wet weather, but I'm torn on which style to go for.

>>12927756
all are hideous but black is always a solid choice

>>12927766
They're not intended to be pretty. They're intended to work. They're intended to allow you to walk through snow and mud and slush and slog through terrain without getting your socks fucked in the middle of an ice storm.

Also, from now on I'm calling these platypus boots.

Does anyone make actual high (14''+) lace boots for men outside of workwear brands or top tier designers?
I've wanted something like this for ages but can't handle the styling of the former or the price tag of the later.

>>12927772
Ok, so they're completely utilitarian. Why should anyone here then care about the colour?

>>12927875
Because color is an option and I may wear them as general purpose.

>>12927800
Doc martens but they’re gonna be shit quality

Copped these boots. thots?

>>12927991
Yes, they would wear them.

>>12927991
wtc?

>>12928039

I got them here.

Not sure where you can find them though.

>>12925311
W2c?

>>12907059
can't believe no one has suggested you kill yourself yet
try it

>>12925311
they crease a lot right ?

>>12919346>>12913973

How's the sizing on Solovairs? I wear 10,5 UK in adidas and 11 UK in nike, should I pick 11 UK Solovair?

Yeah, I already checked the website, but I need some info from somebody that had experience with them.

>>12930113
I think the sizing is the same as doc martens which I have tried on but do not own. I think 1/2 down is usually good.

>>12930120
The problem is that they're not producing half sizes as far as I know.

I'll probably need to go local doc marten store and try some of them there, then cop Solovairs. They should be fairly similar.

>>12904711
What are these called? In Australia will check local pricing.

>>12930789
Austrian paratrooper boots value £30
More affectionately known as meme boots

Guys, help!
I really like these boots but I ruined them by trying to wash the dirt off with soap and brush.

Now the suede looks shiny and gross. Are they permanently fucked or can I restore them?

Help me out!

I fucking love the thinner (2030 last) viberg boondockers but they’re literally $800

In looking for doc alternatives that we’re made out of real full grain as opposed to top grain, i came up with these kelso’s I really like

>>12931942
these are beauties

Does anyone know of boots that don't get destroyed at the beach
Not wellies please :(

Suede doesn't like the water
Normal leather gets destroyed by sand

Is canvas my only option ? I've avoided it so far due to its lack of real water proofing

>>12917733

Rate my collection, effay.

>>12932673
from left to right

>wellco RATs, temperate weather
most comfy out of the bunch, but falling apart. wellco is inferior in terms of qc and quality to danner and bates.
>bates lites, warm weather
the worst and most uncomfortable of them all. poorly made, don't fit right and have a tendency of getting way too loose while walking
>bates durashocks, temperate weather w/ goretex lining
second to the RAT's in terms of fit and comfort. hiked hundreds of kilometers. have had them since boot camp and MCT. unservicable.
>bates durashocks, temperate weather w/ goretex lining (wearing)
same as above but new.

>>12913357
these do not look breathable whatsoever. avoid like the plague, there's a reason modern military boots don't look like these.

>>12927772

For 20 bucks they won't do that.

>>12932383
Canvas/goretex?

>>12932383
Rubber is the only option for real wetwork
Otherwise don't go to the fucking beach in boots

what are your opinions on doc martens, ive been looking into buying a pair. are they quality?

>>12928058
thank you :)

>>12932679

>>12932673
very informative thank you
